- Vice Admiral C. Clifford Chase: Does Agent David carry a weapon?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: She is a weapon.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: [Looking a Ziva's passport] That is unfair. No one's passport photo should look this good.
- Ziva David: [Re: a dumpster] Somebody's going to have to go through this. This is disgusting.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Last time I checked, I was Senior Field Agent.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Well, it's too bad we don't have a probationary agent with us...
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo, Special Agent Timothy McGee: But we do!
- Ziva David: You're going to pull rank on me?
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Why didn't you answer my call?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Well, you did call me in the middle of the night, and I did return it.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: When?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Half an hour ago.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: [Checking his cellphone] Blocked ID. You know I don't accept blocked calls.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Using my father is a very bad idea.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: No other option, DiNozzo.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: You don't know him like I do. It can lead to nothing but trouble
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Summit starts tomorrow night. He's our entree.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Okay, but please, he *can't* stay at my place.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: What is your current relationship with her?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Ziva? We're co-workers. We don't have a relationship. It's strictly business.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Then you won't mind if I make my move *if* the opportunity presents itself.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Dad.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: What?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Please, I beg you, don't embarrass me.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: We're DiNozzos. We don't communicate well.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: We used to, you know. Long time ago. Sometimes, I wish we could rewind to the last time we had a normal father/son relationship.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: When was that?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: It was a fishing trip. It was just before mom died, you probably don't remember.
- [DiNozzo Sr pulls out his wallet]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Dad, it's okay, I -
- [DiNozzo Sr shows Tony a picture]
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: I look at that picture every morning. It's one of my fondest memories too. Okay, from now on, we talk. Let's get out of here before we both start bawling.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [to his father] Are you out of your mind? You don't bring a personal tailor up to your room! Dad, come on. This is a...
- [Tony grabs hold of Sr.'s suit]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Wow. That's soft.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Pure cashmere. One hundred percent virgin.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: You rented a cashmere tuxedo?
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: No, uh, bought it. At least, NCIS did.
- Ziva David: I'm sure he's all right, Tony. He looked fine getting off the plane.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah, so did the guy in front of him, and he ended up dead crammed in a dumpster.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Slow down, DiNozzo.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: All right, I got a hit, 15100 1st Street Northeast. Mid-Atlantic Trailways Bus Station.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [groans] This is worse than I thought. My father... at a bus station.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Tony thinks that it's a mistake to involve you in an NCIS investigation.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: What do you think?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Well, I think I'm sticking my neck out, but I wanted to look you in the eye and see if I was wrong.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: And?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: And I think you're just enough of a con man to pull it off.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: That is a strange thing to stay to someone you're asking to do you a favor.
- [Tony and McGee watch DiNozzo, Sr. and Ziva walking up the steps to the party. To Tony's horror, DiNozzo, Sr. runs his hand down Ziva's bare back...]
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Oh, oh... There it is.
- Ziva David: [gently but firmly yanking Sr.'s hand away from her bottom] Uh-uh.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: This is the beginning of the end of my career.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: How'd you find me?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I'm a federal agent, dad.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: That doesn't give you a right to violate my privacy. What else do you know?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I know you arrived this morning on a Royce Global private jet, around three a.m.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: You keeping tabs on me, Junior?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I'm investigating a murder, dad.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Murder?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Woody Iverson.
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: What happened?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: We need you to come down to the Navy Yard.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Is this some sort of game you two play? Have you ever just been honest with each other?
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: There may have been things that I haven't told my son... but I have *never* lied to him. You probably won't believe this, Gibbs, but I'm starting to like you. You're not afraid to say what you think.
- NCIS Agent Cashier Fred Seymour: Anthony DiNozzo, Sr is not only staying at a $1,500-a-night suite, he's also running up a huge tab: spa treatment, manicure, French Champagne, and I just got call he's ordered a limousine for tonight.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Guess you haven't gotten the bill for the flowers yet.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: [munching a candy bar in the surveillance van] Mmm... Nutter Butter.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: This is surreal. I feel like I'm in a James Bond movie directed by Fellini. On a stakeout, watching my father and Ziva go undercover, while you munch on a Nutter Butter.
- [Tony and McGee storm into the room with guns drawn, only to see Ziva and DiNozzo Sr.' restraining their respective bad guys]
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Junior! Can I borrow your handcuffs?
- [In exasperation, Tony looks at Ziva, who is grinning widely]
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: So, you never talked to Iverson on the plane. But you did share a cab into the city?
- Anthony DiNozzo Sr: Yeah... I'm beginning to feel like a suspect. I don't expect special treatment because I'm Junior's father. And I accept that we will never be friends, Gibbs. But I don't like your tone.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: You were the last person to see Iverson alive. How I feel about you, personally, it's irrelevant. This is a murder investigation, and I'll follow it wherever it leads.
- Vice Admiral C. Clifford Chase: Gentlemen, this whole situation has gotten a whole lot bigger than a homicide investigation. We'll take it from here.
- Leon Vance: Admiral, I've already spoken with SecNav. This is an NCIS investigation. Do I need to remind you why we're a civilian-run agency? With all due respect, Admiral, those stars on your shoulders don't carry much weight in this building.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Sir, if you'd like to be briefed on where we are, what we know so far, you're welcome to stay.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: What's your assignment, Admiral Chase?
- Vice Admiral C. Clifford Chase: Are you asking me because you want to know if Iverson was coming to see me about something personal, or my job?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: I asked you what your assignment was, sir.
- Vice Admiral C. Clifford Chase: I don't think this is the place for this discussion. I'm overdue at the Pentagon. I'll get in touch with NCIS this afternoon.
